Built by people who understand what you do.

The Dodeca team includes former finance leaders, CPAs, MBAs, Essbase specialists, engineers, trainers, and customer-support staff. Many have worked with our customers for decades.

You will always know where we stand, and we will always stand with you.

I built this business by listening to customers, improving the product, and putting their work first. We did not take outside investment. I wanted decisions grounded in what helps people do their jobs, not in what looks good in a pitch deck.

You deserve a partner who treats your challenges as its own, keeps its word, and is willing to work through the details. That is what you can expect from me and from the Dodeca team.

Our story.

Dodeca began with a practical observation: finance teams needed the flexibility of spreadsheets and the power of Essbase, but they also needed a more controlled way to build, distribute, and maintain critical reporting.

Applied OLAP was founded in 1998. The company launched Dodeca in 2006 and has continued to expand the platform around the real work of reporting, planning, data integration, and analysis.

Drillbridge joined the product family in 2015, followed by the Dodeca Excel Add-In for Essbase in 2017 and continued integrations with modern Oracle Cloud EPM environments.

In 2026, Applied OLAP changed its company name to Dodeca, the same name as its flagship product. As technology changes, the company keeps direct customer support and difficult reporting problems at the center of its work.
